The apartment was spacious and with a gorgeous view. We love that very much. We loved the fact that we could enter our apartment directly from the elevator.Inconveniences: at the beginning there was no internet connection.After complaining, the technicians came to fix the problem. They entered our apartment without a warning, that wasn’t so nice. The apartment had a nasty smell of a cesspit. The biggest inconvenience: it was difficult to find a parking space near the apartment. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/354bd740-4f92-45c2-88eb-236a0f033c4c-1751984776001.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Royal Óbidos Scenic Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Obidos-Hotels-Evolutee-Hotel.h8679699.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Negril](https://www.expedia.ca/Negril-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d2543-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Condo Rentals Daytona Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Daytona-Beach-Condos.d6023995-aaCondos.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Collingwood](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Hotels.d11938.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mangrove Beach Corendon Curacao All-Inclusive Resort, Curio by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Willemstad-Hotels-Mangrove-Beach-Corendon-Curacao-All-Inclusive-Resort.h40394671.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Wind Creek Curacao Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Willemstad-Hotels-Renaissance-Curacao-Resort-Casino.h2351342.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Humboldt](https://www.expedia.ca/Humboldt-Hotels.d182005.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Dreams Curacao Resort, Spa & Casino - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Willemstad-Hotels-Dreams-Curacao.h39513489.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabin Rentals Sturgis](https://www.expedia.ca/Sturgis-Cabins.d553248635975861657-aaCabins.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [5 Star Hotels in Downtown Anaheim](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Downtown-Anaheim-Anaheim-Hotels.s50-n553248635976477247-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Manistee (MBL) to Dar es Salaam (DAR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mbl/dar/manistee-to-dar-es-salaam) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Honolulu (HNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/hnl/calgary-to-honolulu) > > [Flights from Dalian (DLC) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dlc/yyz/dalian-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Jomsom (JMO) to Pokhara (PKR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/jmo/pkr/jomsom-to-pokhara-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Portland (PDX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/pdx/edmonton-to-portland) ### Activities ### Packages > [South Keys Shopping Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Keys-Shopping-Centre-South-End.d553248621560893757.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Dhammikarama Burmese Buddhist Temple](https://www.expedia.ca/Dhammikarama-Burmese-Buddhist-Temple-Downtown-George-Town.d6113854.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Palm Springs Aerial Tramway](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Aerial-Tramway-Palm-Springs.d6129157.Vacation-Attraction) ### Vacation Rentals ### General > [Visit Downtown Cabo San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cabo-San-Lucas-Downtown-Cabo-San-Lucas.dx800062) > > [Visit Wolfe Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Wolfe-Island.dx177523) > > [Visit Halfmoon Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Halfmoon-Bay.dx181035)
